Signature weapons

Remove all ads!

I had started this post with the idea of getting feedback about types of weapons in mind, not actual specifics like naming the weapons you use all the time. After all, you can't actually even get the equaliser until chapter 6 for example. Was just wondering about character preferences in the style of weapons and ways of using those styles.
Ragusa, i really enjoyed reading your post especially, and the way you mention the weapons you particularly favoured was cool. I always love to hear about how ppl make their characters that little bit different, keep it up .

 

for me (my sorcer) I always carry the elemantal staffs. apart from thunder, of course.
I do have the staff of the magi but I dont like it for some reason. I want my mage to look normal, other than flashing
also the boomerang dagger is good.
ok, now its styles of weapons you want. well, as seem as theres not many (maybe even none) good, alingend staffs, I made up my own. read below.
please note that this weapon is fictous and not real. Id possibly make it but I dont know how
---------------------------------------------
Staff of the blue Mage:
Can Luanch A fireball 3 times per day
Improve Haste 1 time per day
Protection from evil 4 times per day
Info: The staff of the blue mage can only be used by lawful-good aligned mages. This staff is usually presented when blue mages have reached a good enough status to overcome almost any injustice. How it got so far into amn is a mysterie, but rumors say that if any evil-aligned mages try to use it, a curse will slowly kill them each day until a 'remove curse' spell is cast.
damage: 1d6 +3
crushing
evil monsters (not including dragons or other strong creatures) must make a save v.s death or be utterly destroyed
---------------------------------------------
If anyone is wondering why I made this up, its beacuse I roleplay my character as a blue mage. Info on blue mages here:
The blue mage sect is a group with the goal to wipe all evil of the face of faerun. they are noticed by thier colours, which are light blue or dark blue (light for my character) with the seconadary colour of dark green (which is also my cahracters)or light green. they are sworn enimies to red mages (including edwin, but I just HAD to have him in my party. dont ask me why, but I just LOVE his voice and his sarcasm. also I can make fun of him when he turns into a girl ). They also have another sect to help them out: the blue kinghts. blue knights have the same colours abd the same goals, but they are fighters and paladins.
all races are allowed into the blue knights and mages, but it is mostly ruled by humans.

playing tabletop wargames (or any wargames)like the 'games workshop' range and any other tolkien-esque games (lord of the rings wargame out soon!!) you can conjure up all sorts of backgrounds and weapon preferences.

my elf fighter is based on the general of my High Elf army in a game called 'warhammer' (agames workshop game) and in this game he likes big 2h swords and some decent armour.

hes the leader in my game of bg2. i tooled him up real good. he also has a grand mastery in 2h swords!!! obviously enough his favourits weapon is, in fact, the 2h sword.
